Here we go with a Brand Z 9-S-262

Good job Ron!  Icon_thumbup 

Since your daughter isn't a collector and probably won't be DXing the AM and shortwave bands how about putting a small FM converter in it for them.  Those little units made for cars work very good, are easy to conceal in a console, and are pretty easy to install.  Although those converters are going up in price, they can still be found pretty cheap.  Terry Layman wrote about doing that in an old Service Bench article, has done several for customers, and reports they work out rather well.  If you can't find the issue I can e-mail you a copy from my MSARC newsletter archives.  Below is an article about the same (although less detailed) from ARC:

You might also want to consider adding a jack for an MP3 player.  Either way it would be nice for them to get some use out of that nice radio since, if their local AM programming is anything like ours, sucks  Icon_silent
